Your Gift Creates Hope – Help Us Change Lives in the Mahoning Valley

At The Hope Foundation of the Mahoning Valley, we are driven by a single mission: to improve the quality of life for chronically and terminally ill children in our community.

With your support, we can provide critical resources, grant wishes, and bring joy to children and families facing unimaginable challenges. Your generosity not only offers immediate relief but also builds a foundation of hope for a better tomorrow.

Welcome to The Hope Foundation of the Mahoning Valley

The Hope Foundation of the Mahoning Valley is a not-for-profit entity organized for the purpose of enhancing the quality of life for families with children experiencing chronic and/or terminal conditions in the Mahoning Valley.

Key Areas of Impact

Medical Support & Care: Your contributions help cover the cost of essential medical treatments and therapies that aren’t fully funded by insurance. Last year, we provided over $10,000’s of thousands of dollars in direct support to families, ensuring their children received the care they needed.

Wishes Granted & Dreams Fulfilled: Through our wish-granting program, we’ve brought smiles to countless children by making their dreams come true. Whether it’s a trip to a favorite destination or meeting a hero, your donation creates unforgettable moments of joy for children facing serious illnesses.

Community & Family Support: We understand that a child’s illness affects the entire family. That’s why we offer resources, counseling, and financial assistance to support families during their most challenging times. Your gift ensures that no one faces these hardships alone.
